What's it like to teach at Ashton?
Take a look at what some of our faculty members have to say about their experience teaching at Ashton.
There is so much that I enjoy about my job. If there is one thing that I love the most (which I see in the classroom frontier as well) is seeing the person on the first day, and then noticing all the changes that happen after the training. The changes happen so quickly, so rapidly, and they bring out so much of that individual.

I enjoy teaching because it really is a way of giving back to the profession, and I must admit that it is also a passion of mine, an intrinsic fulfillment to be able to impart knowledge into the students and share my experience.
